Short and sweet

I have family in town, so I haven't been slaving away at the machine like I should be... but the quilt is coming together—slowly but surely!

Here's the update:
-I have all 63 of the top blocks sewn together
-I created the strip for the back of the quilt

Currently working on:
-cutting out and sewing the panels together for the back of the quilt

Hoping to finsih tonight:
-basting the quilt (top/batting/bottom)

Once that's done—if it's not too too late—I'd really like to start the straight stitch quilting tonight! We shall see...
